SoapException - workspace in use


I want to open a solution on our build server from source control by saying get latest version in the team explorer, but when I do I get the following...

System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The working folder
...
is already in use by another workspace on the computer at
Microsoft.TeamFoundatoin.VersionControl.Server.Repository.UpdateWorkspace(String oldWorkspaceName, String ownerName, Workspace newWorkspace)

So the question is, how do I remove this workspace from this machine so it doesn't think it is in use?

We tried just removing it from the user interface and then just readding it and we still got the same error.

If the workspace doesn't actually exist, you can remove it from the machine's local cache by running tf workspaces /remove:*
